| Obverse description | The obverse bears the right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, rendered in fine relief against a matte frosted field at the lower portion of the shaped flan. The legend 'ELIZABETH II SOLOMON ISLANDS 25 DOLLARS' arcs around the portrait, with the date '2013' and fineness inscriptions '3 OZ .999 Ag' placed in the lower field. The engraver's initials 'IRB' appear beneath the truncation of the bust. The coin's overall silhouette faithfully replicates the iconic three-dimensional form of the ancient Egyptian bust of Queen Nefertiti, with the flat base and characteristic tall double crown (khepresh) shaping the outline of the piece. |
